---------------------------------------
[~ekundin] My apologies for not catching this earlier. But we need to modify
the documentation for this feature too. I have filed HADOOP-13102 as a
documentation JIRA. You can assign it to yourself or send it to me.

> When using {{LdapGroupsMapping}} with Hadoop, nested groups are not
> supported. So for example if user {{jdoe}} is part of group A which is a
> member of group B, the group mapping currently returns only group A.
> Currently this facility is available with {{ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping}} and
> SSSD (or similar tools) but would be good to have this feature as part of
> {{LdapGroupsMapping}} directly.
